why doesn't this ear find his dependencies? - maven

Question

I just mavenised some project. I was using ant before and it has following structure:
MYPROJECT/
pom.xml (ear)
MYPROJECT-EJB
pom.xml
MYPROJECT-WAR
pom.xml
If I build the ejb and jar projects, it works. If I clean everything and starts from the ear, it doesn't. Here is what I got with 'maven clean install' from jenkins:
[WARNING] The POM for be.valuya.myproject:myproject-ejb:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT
is missing, no dependency information available [WARNING] The POM for
be.valuya.myproject:myproject-war:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT is missing, no
dependency information available [WARNING] The POM for
be.valuya.myproject:myproject-ws:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT is missing, no
dependency information available
BTW, I don't know how it's supposed to find those dependencies, but that's what I'd want.
Here is my ear's pom.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Answer 1

Made a superpom. Much better, although still not perfect (but I'll ask in another question).
